How does therapy for first responders work?
Counseling offers a safe and objective environment. Our therapists can help you overcome trauma and stressful experiences from what you have witnessed on the job.
Our therapists meet 1-on-1 to help first responders understand how traumatic events can have a significant impact on the brain. Our work together helps you stop living in the past so you can enjoy your present.
Sessions are also 100% confidential, excluding any safety concerns.
EMDR Therapy is also an option for first responders.
